Artistic Adventure: Creating Playful Mini Abstracts Using Color Palette Inspiration

Hey there! In today's art video, I took on the exciting color palette challenge. I picked a color palette card and used those vibrant and fun colors to create 12 mini abstracts. With acrylic paints and Neo Color pastels, I played with layers, mark-making, and bold techniques. The end result? A collection of delightful and unique abstract artworks that are sure to bring a smile to your face. Join me as I explore the world of color and unleash my creativity in this engaging art tutorial. Let's dive in and discover the joy of creating abstract masterpieces!

    I really enjoyed this abstract. I am going to order the color cubes but was wondering if you earn a percentage and if so where do I go to make sure you get the percentage

      You’ll love the color cubes! I’ve been having such a good time this year doing some color challenges for myself. Really takes the stress off of trying to figure out what colors to use. I do get a small commission is you use my link. I really appreciate the support! Here is that link: The Color Cube – https://sarahrenaeclark.com/colorcube/?ref=123

    Love it all! I had no idea there were trimmers for deckled edges, so that was helpful.
